Today's recap was provided by Antoinette Brown

Whitney recalls Simone's biting words about her role as the perfect daughter in the eyes of their parents. A bratty Simone brags about the special connection that she shares with Chad. She accuses her big sister of being jealous because there is no one interested in her. The Russell girls continue to argue about Chad. Simone asks if maybe their mom would prefer it if she snuck around behind her back. When Whitney scoffs at that suggestion, Simone fires back that the older girl is just upset that no guy is out there thinking about her.

Kay tries to conceal her happiness when she and Miguel don't find Charity at the old house in New Castleton. For a brief moment, Kay considers everything that her cousin has gone through in the last couple of weeks and she feels a brief tug of sympathy for her. That quickly evaporates when she remembers that Charity is keeping her from having a chance with Miguel. Finding no sign of Charity, Kay is ready to head back to Harmony. Miguel is not so willingly to give up the search. Miguel thanks Kay for her support and she promises to continue to be there for him. When he tells her that he always wants her to be a part of his life, Kay gazes at him longingly. Timmy and Tabitha struggle to drag an unconscious Charity to the train tracks. Tabitha warns her pint sized assistant that if Charity lives and finds true love, it will be the end of them for sure. When an exhausted Timmy balks at Tabitha's insistence that they change the position of Charity's body on the train tracks, Tabitha threatens to have him join the girl. Tabitha and Timmy realize that the train is drawing near and they work feverishly to get Charity in to place on the tracks. Nearby, Miguel prays that he will find Charity.

Eve is still furious that Simone disobeyed her orders to not have Chad in the house. When she mentions never having that kind of trouble from Whitney, T. C. reminds her that their daughters have distinct personalities and they should be judged separately. T. C. thinks that Chad isn't such a bad kid. Eve wants to be sure that her daughters don't make that same mistake that someone else has. Her husband wonders who exactly is Eve talking about. Eve has a memory of a time when she was younger and she was begging someone not to tell anyone about them, especially T. C. She of course does not share this memory with her dear husband. He tells her not to obsess over this situation with Simone. When he calls her perfect, Eve protests. T.C. considers his wife to be the perfect role model for their girls and he knows that they will make all the right decisions, just like their mom.

Chad continues to dwell on the incident with his boss back in L.A. At the pool hall, it's not long before Chad gets into an argument with some guy who thinks that he is trying to hit on his girl. The hotheaded Mr. Harris quickly challenges the other guy. Chad avoids a fight when the other guy backs down. Chad starts wondering how he can earn enough money to get out of Harmony. An angry Luis thinks that he has spotted his sister Theresa at the charity ball with Ethan Crane. Sheridan thinks that Luis must be suffering the aftereffects of that conk on the head when he insists that he has seen his sister at the ball with her nephew. Luckily, Theresa has also spotted Luis and ducked behind a curtain. As dense as ever, Ethan can't understand why her brother would be so upset at finding her there. Completely missing the point, he declares that Luis should be proud to see how beautiful his baby sister is looking. Theresa manages to convince Ethan that Luis would be absolutely furious at finding her there. She begs him to help her elude her brother. Locking eyes with Ethan from across the room, Luis orders the young man to stay put because he wants to talk to him. As Luis makes his way across the room, he loses sight of Ethan.

Eve and Whitney have a heart to heart talk. Eve confides in her oldest that she's not sure what Simone is up to these days. She's afraid that Simone might sneak off to meet Chad. Whitney confesses to her horrified mom that she has been wondering what it would be like to take a walk on the wild side. Eve immediately voices her objections. She praises her daughter for being a wonderful girl and tells her to disregard Simone's hurtful digs about how boring she is. Whitney reassures her mother that Simone will come around and everything in their family will get back to normal.

Simone dashes for the phone hoping that it's Chad but it's only Kay. Kay brags to Simone that Miguel wants her in his life forever. Simone scolds her best friend for not caring what happens to her own cousin. When Simone fills Kay in on her vicious argument with her parents, Kay congratulates her friend for standing up for herself. Kay encourages the other girl to sneak out of the house and find Chad. Despite her misgivings, Simone heeds her friend's advice. A disbelieving Whitney watches as her sister creeps out of the house.

At the pool hall, the bartender coldly tells Chad that he better order something or leave. When one of the patrons asks for someone to play pool against, Chad accepts the challenge in hopes of earning enough money to split town. A victorious Chad is enraged when his opponent claims to not have the money to pay him. Jacking the guy up by the collar, Chad makes it clear that he wants his money now!

Eve catches her husband staring pensively out of the window down at the shed. She confides in him that she and Whitney have noticed that something has been bothering him lately. T.C. tries to change the subject but to no avail. Eve pleads with him to open up to her.

Sheridan continues to insist to the cop that she hasn't seen Theresa at the ball. After all, she reasons, what would Theresa be doing there with her nephew? Believing that he has finally cornered Ethan, Luis is not deterred to realize that he has tapped the wrong man on the shoulder. He shakes Sheridan off when she tries to drag him out of the ball before can he make a bigger fool out of himself. She reminds Luis that Ethan is seriously dating Gwen Hotchkiss. Lopez-Fitzgerald wonders if Ethan is just trying to use his sister for some action on the side. Sheridan sees red when he implies that the men in her family have a history of fooling around with women from the wrong side of the tracks. Luis finally confronts Ethan and demands to know where Theresa is. Ethan plays dumb (too easy) and pretends to have no clue what Luis is talking about. The cop cuts him off when Crane attempts to exchange pleasantries with his aunt. Noticing a door close to Ethan, Luis orders him out of the way because he suspects that Theresa is hiding inside. A tense Sheridan and Ethan look on anxiously as Luis opens the door.
